Page:Diary of One Month in Honolulu.pdf/18



We are at Haleiwa. Left Honolulu on the 9:15 train this morning and reached here a little before noon. The trip was beautiful and the coast and mountains were different from anything we had seen on any other part of the Island.

This afternoon we walked over to the Waimea beach, not far from the hotel, and the surf was splendid. Also, I found a good many shells—not very large, but wonderfully brilliant in coloring. We talked to some natives and Jack got some more information, as usual. He is going to the site of an old heiau, or temple, tomorrow morning.

Went in swimming after dark. It was fun. Jack wants to do some hunting and fishing, but we'll not have time, for there is a hula dance planned for tomorrow night, back in Honolulu, and we don't want to miss that.
